I am new to the hobby and recently got 8 WCMMs in a 16L (4.2 gallon) tank as a beginner. The tank is not heavily planted. Would that be okay for them to be happy? Thanks!
White Cloud Mountain Minnows are hardy fish and a good choice for beginners. While a heavily planted tank isn't necessary, having some plants or decorations for them to hide and explore will make them feel more at home. In a 4.2-gallon tank, make sure to monitor water quality closely, do regular water changes, and keep the number of fish appropriate. Proper filtration is also important. As long as you maintain good water conditions and provide some enrichment, they should be happy!
White Cloud Mountain Minnows can tolerate a temperature range of 60-78 degrees Fahrenheit, with an ideal range of 72-75 degrees. Keeping the temperature at 77 degrees should be fine for these fish, but it's important to monitor them and ensure they are healthy and comfortable. As for the recommended school size, 10 is a general guideline to ensure that the fish have enough space to swim and interact with their tankmates. Keeping a larger school can also help with their overall well-being and reduce stress.
@@AquaWorldInfo They should do fine in a 75 gal for 10 of them In a temp at 70-72 with 2 -100 gph hang on back filters ? with river rock & pea gravel for substrate & a verity of different plant's.
The ideal school size for White Cloud Mountain Minnows is typically recommended to be around 6 to 10 individuals. Keeping them in a group helps promote their natural schooling behavior and reduces stress. If you have any more questions or if there's anything else you'd like to know, feel free to ask!
Οι λευκές νέφες βουνού είναι αρκετά ανθεκτικά και μπορούν να επιβιώσουν σε δεξαμενές τουλάχιστον 10 λίτρων. Ωστόσο, για να αισθάνονται άνετα και να εκδηλώνουν φυσική συμπεριφορά, συνήθως συνιστάται να τους παρέχετε μια δεξαμενή τουλάχιστον 20 λίτρων ή περισσότερο.

@@AquaWorldInfo thank you so much for your advice. Much appreciated 🤗
Can these fish do ok with a temperature of 77°? And why does it say a maximum of 10 should be kept in a school?
